Molecular Biology of Schizosaccharomyces Pombe: Genetics, Genomics and Beyond

Product Description

The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is the favoured tool of many productive research groups throughout the world, serving as a useful model for fundamental principles and mechanisms, such as genome organization, differential gene regulation, cell-cycle control, signal transduction, or cellular morphogenesis. This book collates the current state of knowledge derived from molecular studies in this simple eukaryotic microorganism. The entire sequence of its genome has been completed, emphasizing the comparative value and model status of this yeast. The individual chapters, highlighting up-to-date views on prominent aspects of molecular organization, were written by active research scientists, presenting the results of their investigations to other workers in neighbouring fields. This book intends to serve the fission yeast community as a handy source of reference for years to come. It will also be of particular value to the ever-increasing number of researchers starting to look into fission yeast affairs for comparative reasons from other platforms of molecular genetics and cell biology.

Book Description

This highly researched yeast, which represents a system used by cell biologists, geneticists and molecular biologists, has been given only minimal coverage in the literature. Its properties make it an excellent organism for DNA and related biotechnology reseach. This book, which is the first attempt to collate existing information in one source, will be an invaluable aid to those initiating projects with this organism.

Product Description

Recombinant proteins, produced in cells or microorganisms, play an important role in basic research, medical science and the biotechnology industry. Many foreign gene expression systems using mammalian cells, E. coli, insect cells, yeast and other organisms as hosts have been developed. However, only recently has the expression system of Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a host become a subject of focus, as it is expected to be profitable for expressing foreign genes. The reason for this is that S. pombe is evolutionarily more advanced than other types of yeast. This book describes the use of S. pombe in basic research and industrial applications.

A family vacation can be a glorious experience, or it can become grist for the mill of lasting resentments. If everyone is psyched about a month in a secluded cabin, fishing together all day, and playing cards at night, it's not hard to find it--and you won't be needing this book. Likewise if your kids are enthused about days worth of museums, or you are eager to spend a week in Disneyland. But if you're a family of varying tastes, want some time together but also some time apart, Janet Tice's and Jane Wilford's research will come in very handy. These resorts offer activities geared for kids and activities just for parents, so you get to go to the same place as a family and spend time together, but needn't do so all day, every day. Describing the surroundings, accommodations, dining, and recreation for children and for adults, Family Resorts gives you the particulars to help you select the resort that'll make everyone happy.

Book Description

This guidebook contains information valuable to parents regardless of their children's ages, along with hints for traveling and much more.

Interesting-contains good information.......2001-02-16

Very informative book. It talks about many different resorts all over the world. It provides you with good information on which resorts have the best cabins, which ones are known for better fishing, golfing or lakes. I like that it covers which resorts are better for families with children and which are better for adults. This book does't only cover resorts, it also has information on different ways to spend your time, while on a trip. You'll learn all about different museums, activities for everyone in your family, sightseeing places, dining, and pricing on motels. This book has lots of useful information.

Fun for Parents and Children.......1999-08-25

I understand the first reviewers comments, but do not completely agree. Families are looking for vacations that have activites that appeal to all ages. 100 Best Family Resorts in North America describes all types of resorts, hotels, ranches, etc. that cater to FAMILIES. A family can spend lots of time together if they want, or parents and children can choose their own activites. None of the resorts mentioned requires parents to leave their kids all day. It's the best of both worlds, time with family and time pursuing other interests. There is plenty to choose from.

Know your idea of a "family vacation" before buying this..........1998-04-22

Having done Disney World and most of the other typical family type vacations, I eagerly awaited the arrival of this book in the hope that it would provide what it promised: Many resorts in North America that would be ideally suited for family vacations. While the book seems fairly well-researched, be forewarned...buy this book only if your idea of a perfect vacation is one during which you are not forced to spend any time with your kids.

We had hoped the authors and the resorts would share our idea of a family vacation. That is, a destination where families could go and enjoy all sorts of leisure activities together. In reality, the book merely lists resorts that provide great skiing, golf, nightlife, and/or other adult activities that also happen to feature a place to park your kids throughout the day and evening. These are billed as "day camps", or "adventure clubs", and the like, but in reality they are merely day care centers; places to drop off the kids and get them out of your hair while you're off having a great time.

If, as the authors suggest, you are a family with two working parents who feel a need to be alone during your vacations, and often consider leaving the children at home (!), then I suppose this book will help you. If, on the other hand, you are a family that truly enjoys each others company and views vacations as a time to connect, have fun, and get to know each other better, then save your money. Your kids will have more fun staying home with you and maybe doing some special things or taking daytrips than they will being trucked to one of these resorts and deposited in yet another daycare center all day and night.

Enlightening Observations from All of History.......2001-09-20

In this book, people who have read alot into Native American history will see the more famous Indian testimonials that have appeared in many other places, like those by heavily published persons like Black Elk, Tecumseh, and Charles Eastman (Sioux). You also get many anonymous accounts and the testimony from obscure persons who were only known to give their thoughts to a few white people. What sets this book above the rest, however, is that it doesn't just cover the time periods that are shown in most Native American histories, which would either be ancient pre-European times, or the famous era of the Indians' destruction and valiant efforts to maintain the old ways of life. This book also covers those areas, as it should, but continues into the modern reservation days, and even captures the thoughts of recent activists on the future of Native Americans. All people will be enlightened by the non-Western interpretations on history, religion, politics, and culture that are generously detailed in this book.

Interviews Out of Time.......1999-03-29

This book is a collection of interviews with and stories from everyday people as they lived out their lives. I first read this book several years ago, yet I find that there are interviews and stories that I go back and reread again and again. If you are a Native or a student of Native American History, this is a good book to have on your shelf.

The seldom told stories of our history.......1998-03-25

Nabokov has done a superb job of collecting individual Native American memoirs from the last half millenium and weaving them together to paint the sad portrait of Indian-White relations. In between the tales from each successive time period in history is enlightening commentary, usually an historical overview of the period written by the editor. These commentaries help give a unity to this work. But this is not simply a bad guys vs. good guys book. Nabokov's stories reflect the complexity involved among Native Americans who frequently disagreed with each other about what would be the best path to trod for all concerned; and they also tell the stories of proud peoples who continued to survive and carry on. This book illuminates history in a way that most school textbooks do not.

Book Description

In this book Itai Sened provides an original analysis of the political institutions that protect property and individual rights. He argues that the origin of these rights resides in political institutions, and not in any set of moral principles. Individual rights are said to derive from a "social contract" that evolves through a political process in which governments grant and protect rights in return for political and economic support.
